Pet Peeve of the Week: Endgame Flakes.

Why they apply to an endgame LS, I don't even know. If they can't handle the level of activity from week to week, then they shouldn't even bother applying. If you're just going to be a wallflower that never comes to events, why? If you're gonna get pissy that there isn't an event every moment of the day, why? If you're going to accept a pearl, then hop to another LS w/o attending one event, why?

These Linkshells have rules, we assume you read them before applying. Know what you're applying to, you may be joining an LS that doesn't camp HNMs, so don't expect them to. They may or may not have internal Dynamis and you need to make a decision about the potential conflicts before accepting a pearl.

Don't be a flake. Endgame linkshells are not for everyone, its not about your self image, its about being part of a team and helping them grow to do bigger and better things in the game. If you're not there to be part of the team, people will remember it. They have "Left members" lists for a reason.

I don't lose any sleep over it, but if it is a nuiciance to have people apply and just waste the time and attention of others, either not contributing, not showing up or jumping for greener pastures before attending one event.

Makes me wish we could I.D. kids before letting them join an LS, I swear.

My pet peeve is a link shell member, only 1 person in our link shell can stand them because they are their real life friend, and they may very well be the first person ever booted from our shell.

Something that annoyed me the other day.. I got raise-jacked ;_;

Wait BBQ you have a list of people who left your ls?

My LS isn't the only one. Its meant to keep track of who left for what reasons. From lack of time to play, took a break due to RL matters, military duty, who left without attending an event at all, who just jumped after getting the gear they wanted or who just plain quit the game.

Its not just some personal shitlist, its a means to handle possible re-apps fairly. If someone from another LS inquires about an individual applying to their LS, we can tell them our experience and what they can expect.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

ya i meant your ls had a list, just never had they idea while a leader to keep track of why people left. Only had a thread when someone was way out of line/gear whoring etc.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

while getting raised someone cast tractor on you stopping the raise from taking effect, usually done as a grief tactic at hnm to stop a ls from recovering.


That what you mean?

Lyonheart's Pet Peeve #120: People who have to stand right up against the AH counter. I tend to walk up to the point where there's some distance between me and the AH counter so I'm not completely crowding it. While I'm browsing the AH, a player will come up run right into the wall. If this happened in real life, I'd be pissed. Good thing this isn't real life though. Still, those players should learn to use F8 to target the AH counter.

Related pet peeve: People who feel the need to call out their "pets" in Al Zahbi, even when there's no Besiged going on. It's usually DRGs with their wyverns and PUPs with their automatons. As crowded as the AH NPCs get at times, F8 is the only reasonable way to target them without having to tab through 20 or more targets. But those stupid wyverns and automatons get in the way of that too.

Wow, just when you think people can't stoop lower. That's a lame thing to do to people.

Also sounds like good material for an Ask SE Questions post.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

The pets annoyed me until they added /ignorepet

/ignorepet on is on just about 99% of the time now. Only time I turn it off is if I'm skilling up with someone that has a NPC out that I'll be curing from time to time.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I did not know there was an /ignorepet command. How cool is that. I might have to use that during Besieged. Maybe Dynamis, too. Less lag FTW.
